Marling... Milk is also high in tryptophan <spelling?> which is a natural sleep inducer. Tryptophan can also be found in turkey, which may account for all those folks dozing off after their Thanksgiving dinners <smile> Barb Mallut "Lil_Honey" on the PD Chat [log in to unmask] ---------- From: PARKINSN: Parkinson's Disease - Information Exchange Network on behalf of Marling McReynolds Sent: Sunday, January 26, 1997 2:35 PM To: Multiple recipients of list PARKINSN Subject: Re: leg cramps Carol B. Of course. I should have thought of it sooner. Do you know why people have always taken warm/hot milk at night?? the Calcium. Calcium is a natural relaxant. Taken warm it gets into the system faster and goes to work quicker. It relaxes the muscles. Ever notice how quickly a baby goes to sleep after/during a bottle of warm milk? Thank you for reminding me of something I have known of all my life, but did not think to apply to my PD. Marling McReynolds [log in to unmask]
